Former UFC champion in two weight categories Henry Cejudo analyzed in detail the shortcomings of Petr Yan.
“His hands are always up. He might run into something, but Urijah Faber couldn't take advantage of it. This is one of those things that Jan does very well. His hands are always up, but he gets a little carried away with it, which leaves his legs open. So Yang might get in trouble, especially against a fighter like me. Yes, he has good defense, but this is MMA. If you do that, then you'd better stand very far away. I literally lick my lips. Good God, I just see a lot of opportunities in a fight against a guy like Petr Yan. He has flaws. He's so good at standing that he neglects other areas where he really needs help."
Recall that Yan was the UFC bantamweight champion, but lost this belt to Aljamain Sterling.
